specifically that's za'atar the spice blend, which contains za'atar the individual spice along with other stuff
-F

So we ended up getting some za'atar because we found it at the grocery store and we know it tastes good

we have no idea what things za'atar is good on, what do people recommend putting it on?

Lugia's Mansion

zigzagoon is zigzagood

so, pokemon stadium 2 has a mode where you can just play the game boy games in it

why did they not make it use the pokemon stadium engine for battles when doing that? -F

@chr i just want to say thank you for being basically the only person we've ever seen CW that

the emoji ones are even worse than actual photos but for some reason no one thinks they need to be CW'd

we have now finished all the postgame puzzles in opus magnum

This game is good! I like how the postgame stuff gives you a bit of extra worldbuilding and even hints at what happened after the main story's finale

we do still have the bonus puzzles to do, did a few of those but not even close to all of them

a round robin tournament, for determining which robin is the roundest

some of these postgame bonus puzzles in opus magnum are *hard*

feeling quite accomplished for finishing this latest one at all, let alone with any efficiency
-F

otters!

we have discovered that adding some za'atar to wendy's fries is Pretty Tasty

the haber process is neat because the guy who invented it was a nazi inventing it to make chemical weapons, and i bet he would really hate knowing that the production method that has his name attached to it is now completely integral to farming--by inventing the haber process with the intent of killing people, he indirectly led to saving the lives of countless of the people he hated
-F

turns out opus magnum has new bonus postgame puzzles since the last time we played (or maybe last time we just stopped after beating the main story ones)

these are hard, but neat. has some new mechanics

oh no, chirality....

@avie I found an old solution we had to Mist of Incapacitation that i like a lot better than the one we showed you the other day, thought you might like to see it too

something i really like about the community here is how it's completely acceptable for someone who needs money to just ask for it, and people who have money to spare can send some to them

that kind of culture of helping people out is a really good thing
-F

It feels like a lot of people are really attached to where they live, and we're... kinda not? some of that might be because we spent our childhood moving every six to seven years, but a lot of it is we've never really had any local friends, all our socializing has always been online

which i guess is why we were perfectly willing to pack up and move from alabama to oregon on approximately one-month notice when we got a job, but it also means we kinda tend to assume others would be too
-F

actually, thinking about that 2600, i'm curious: what games on it should we keep an eye out for if we visit a used game store or something? Just curious if there are any that are particularly good (not concerned with collectibility)

We were surprised by how good Phoenix and Defender were
